Well. I think I may have figured out how to work this thing. Ha. I emailed Fr. G, asking him for help, and his response (which is currently my Facebook status) made me laugh: ""Good day, Molly! What the heck, YOU, a child of technology, are asking ME, a total geek in the field, about how to proceed with a blog?"I hope that when I publish this, it will post to the website. I have been kind of scared about doing anything here. I have often times felt unworthy to be involved in this ministry in this capacity, and I am always afraid of saying anything. Perhaps that is the devil playing his cards with me. When we act on our feelings of unworthiness, we don't allow God's grace to take control. Like it says in Isaiah 61:
1 The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,2 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the LORD
for the display of his splendor.
He doesn't say that to just me. He says it to all of us. How cool would it be if we all lived as God has called us? I guess that's my way of saying that even if I feel unworthy, God asked me to do it. So, alright God. I'll do it.
Anyway. This is really just supposed to be a tester blog, I guess. I honestly have no idea if its going to work and publish to the website like I'd like it to. I am very lucky that I get to figure these things out by myself. It's like a little adventure every day!
I am a huge fan of music, and I like to share the stuff that I like. Today... a little Phil Wickham is just what I need to start off this beautiful, snowy day. :)
